The Shark Tank has been a lethal environment for any visitors as San Jose has yet to taste defeat here. They have played about as close to perfect as a team can, and will try to ride that momentum against the Maple Leafs tonight. The Sharks have allowed just 26 goals in the 13 games at the Tank, or an average of just two per contest on home ice. The Maple Leafs come in on the momentum of a two-game winning streak, but what is apparent is that Vesa Toskala has been immense behind the net and is a hot goaltender right now. Toskala has allowed just five goals in his last three between the pipes for the Maple Leafs, and if you take away the shootout, he has allowed just four goals. Either way, it is his best three-game stretch of the season. I like the fact that the Sharks don't yield but two goals per game at home, facing a goaltender in Toskala who is on his game right now and at his season peak performance. I will back the UNDER in this one.
